Quarto 1.9 includes the following new features:

Privacy-first cookie consent: The default for cookie consent has changed to type: express, providing opt-in consent that blocks cookies until users explicitly agree. This privacy-conscious default is designed with modern privacy regulations in mind.
aria-label for videos: Improve accessibility of embedded videos by providing custom descriptive labels for screen readers instead of the default “Video Player” label.
Metadata and brand extensions now work without a _quarto.yml project. A temporary default project is created in memory.
Engine extensions allow replacement of the execution engine:
- Julia is now a bundled extension instead of being built-in.
- quarto-marimo will soon change from a filter extension to an engine extension.
- New quarto create extension engine command.
- New quarto call build-ts-extension command.
- New Quarto API for engine extensions to use. (This is in flux and will not be documented for the next few releases, but there will be a dev blog post about it.)
